Surgical intervention, such as the Broström-Gould procedure, is typically indicated for patients with chronic lateral ankle instability. In this study, we are comparing the safety and efficacy of the Broström-Gould procedure with peroneal tendon debridement, a sliding lateralizing calcaneal osteotomy, and adjuvant procedures performed with a single- versus double-incision approach. Our retrospective analysis included patients who underwent the procedure of interest between 2011 and 2020. Patients were divided into 2 groups: undergoing either a 1-incision (n = 53) or a 2-incision approach (n = 47), both with a lateralizing calcaneal osteotomy. A significant difference in skin bridge breakdown was observed between the 2-incision (n = 6 [13%]) and 1-incision groups (n = 0 [0%]). There were no significant differences in infection, deep wound dehiscence, nerve palsy, or neuroma between patients in the 2 groups. Furthermore, no statistically significant differences in mean PROMIS scores existed between the cohorts. The described Broström-Gould procedure shows promise for treating chronic ankle instability. While patients in both single- and double-incision groups had similar rates of postoperative complications, the decreased incidence of skin bridge breakdown in the 1-incision group highlights the approach's safety and potential benefits in reducing wound-related complications.
